G'day there,

Joined about a month ago but haven't posted an intro yet.
I own a 1996 2.8T GQ Patrol.
Unfortunately had the tensioner bearing on the timing belt collapse the other day resulting in several bent valves, two smashed lifters and a damaged camshaft.
Have had the head repaired and serviced hopefully she'll be back on the road by Saturday arvo!

Anyway look forwards to meeting all those other patrol owners out there!

Cheers
Richie

Welcome mate, surely the best forum on the net. If you need it, you can get it, if you want to know it, just ask it.
If you want to find it, go to the search bar for a universe of information.
Enjoy the sights and sounds of the greatest show on earth.

Welcome to the forum Ritchie. Glad to see that the damage has been repaired fairly quickly mate. I think your next stop should be the 'How I got my nickname' section.... :D

Thanks again for the warm welcome, my patrol isn't back on the road yet but shouldn't be long now.
The head is back on just need to bolt everything back together again.
